Macrolane

This treatment is effective on: breasts and body.

For many years women and men alike have been using aesthetic treatments to counter the signs of ageing and replace lost volume in the face.  Now there's a non-surgical body shaping treatment that can naturally regenerate body contours.

Macrolane VRF is an innovative product currently indicated for volume restoration and shaping of body surfaces, for example, the calves and buttocks.  Macrolane can also even out discrepancies in the skin surface, for example those caused by liposuction.

Read the Daily Mail article "Breast Filler" about our doctor, Dr Grant Hamlet, and this new breast enhancement injection treatment here.

What is Macrolane™?

Macrolane - the first body shaping treatment using hyaluronic acid.  It is based on Q-Med's unique patented NASHA™ technology (Stabilized Non-Animal Hyaluronic Acid) which has been used in over 9 million treatments in over 70 countries worldwide.  Use of NASHA has been clinically proven and well documented in facial aesthetics for over 10 years.

What is NASHA™?

Stabilized, Non-Animal Hyaluronic acid (NASHA) is unique to Q-Med, manufacturers of Macrolane.  Naturally occurring hyaluronic acid (HA) undergoes a process where less than one percent is stabilized to form a permanent three-dimensional HA network without damaging the original chemical structure.  This stabilization process produces a biologically degradable NASHA gel that carries minimal risk of allergic reaction or transmission of infectious substances and enables a longer durability. 

What are the benefits of Macrolane to patients?

Market research has shown there to be a significant number of women who would like to adjust the shape of their body in a natural, non-permanent way that does not involve the use of implants or body fat in a major surgical procedure.  Many women are also very hesitant about undergoing general anaesthesia or being left with a scar.  With Macrolane, the procedure is short and requires only local anaesthetic and minimal time away from work or after-work activities.

What are the treatment indications for Macrolane?

Macrolane is an innovative product currently indicated for volume restoration and shaping of body surfaces, for example, the calves and buttocks.  Macrolane can also even out discrepancies in the skin surface, for example, those caused by liposuction and surgical scars.

Can Macrolane VRF be used for breast shaping?

Use of Macrolane in the breast is currently available under the body shaping indication. Ongoing research is being conducted to further evaluate the efficacy of Macrolane in the breast and improve breast shaping injection techniques.  Q-Med, the manufacturer of Macrolane is committed to continuous research and development with patient safety a high priority.
